I Need Sandra!

Do not feel hurt because I need Sandra.


It is just that she is the one

that I told my secrets to

and now I need her and she is not here.


I talk to her photo, but it doesn’t talk back.


I need to tell her something
but she is not here to hear it
even though I need her.


She left me here and I miss her.


I want her to talk to me calmly

like she used to do before

she left here to go there, 

which is where?         

I need a sign of what to do.


Can she send a feather or pearl,


so I will know

which way to go

and what to do

and which to choose?


I need Sandra,

but she left.

It is hard to get through the holidays when someone is missing. There will be empty chairs. You must pause to remember those that are gone. It is important to save that space in your life and in your heart.

Her Last Visit

She came and hovered in front of my face again yesterday.
This tiny and shiny angel, looking into my eyes.
I was so happy for another visit, that I did not realize the purpose.
I knew she must leave. I knew it would be soon, but for once I was in the precious moment of whirling and flashing.
This morning the drooping vines alerted me of the overnight cold.
Another unacknowledged goodby.
Like when I refused to cry at the awful news.
Trying to make things better…bearable.
Denying the coming cold…the coming loss.
Another visit from another spirit that I desperately need to stay with me.
Letting me know they will come and go.

My angels have feathers. One is blue and the other is a shiny, olive green.
